if we have 6 and 9
and we break them down to sets of prime factors {2,3} , and {3}
if the intersection of the 2 sets is empty..does this mean that numbers have no common factors?
or in more specific to my interest...
if we have P and Q and we have their sets of prime factors, if the intersection is empty does this mean P/Q is an irreducible fraction?
or is this only true for their sets of non-zero prime+composite factors?
thanks
